There’s something quietly magnetic about Jara at The Lana, Dorchester Collection — the kind of place that makes you pause before the first bite even arrives. This season, the restaurant unveils its autumn-winter program, bringing the flavors and warmth of the Basque Country to Dubai through tapas-inspired evenings, oyster rituals, and special celebrations of Basque heritage.

The space glows with an amber light that turns dinner into theatre. The croquetas are impossibly smooth, the octopus perfectly charred, and the pintxos arrive as delicate compositions of texture and flavor. Every dish feels personal, crafted with the kind of precision that tells you someone cared.
